Well, I've had some complaint about lack of blog activity, so I thought I would share some of my recent pictures. I haven't done tons of pictures with my digital SLR, so I need the practice before Blair arrives.

After the buckets of rain that we had from the remnants of hurricane Fay, we had loads of mushrooms in our yard. I think I counted eight different kinds -- well, as least with my fungi-untrained eye. Brad and I made it a learning experience and found out why we have mushroom circles or fairy rings.

Child of God, wife of a farmer, mom to a miracle, RN; picture taker, animal lover, Spanish speaker, world traveler, former high school teacher. I love food, knitting, blogging, and living in a small town. I write about a little of all of the above!

Brad is my husband of 6 years and the reason I live across the branch. From a very young age he knew he'd be a farmer. God gave him the love and the talent -- and he's the best looking and the best dressed farmer I know! He's funny, creative, and he's the most wonderful husband and father. He's the one that can make Blair light up like no other.

Blair is four! We are so blessed to have her. She was born very sick, but God gave her strength and brought her through it. She has hearing loss called Auditory Neuropathy and wears hearing aids. She also has chronic lung disease, but you wouldn't know by seeing her! She is the busiest, funniest little thing who keeps us laughing and on our toes. I thank God for her every day.

Leighton is the happy roly poly who joined our family this summer. He has been a joy and is as sweet as his big sister! He's such a blessing, and we're so thankful for him!
